My current focus is AI coding workflows. The tools I ship form a tight loop:
- kerf (https://github.com/brianwestphal/kerf) — a small reactive UI framework (signals + a specialized DOM diff). No virtual DOM, no compiler, no transitive deps beyond @preact/signals-core. Small enough that an AI assistant can hold the whole runtime in context.
- Hot Sheet (https://github.com/brianwestphal/hotsheet) — a fast local ticket tracker. Your AI gets a structured worklist it can read and act on. No cloud, no JIRA.
- Glassbox (https://github.com/brianwestphal/glassbox) — local code review built for the AI loop. Review the diff, annotate what's wrong, export structured feedback your AI can read and fix.
Common thread: small, fast, free, and they stay on your machine. Sponsorship lets me keep shipping in that direction — instead of bolting on a SaaS to fund the work.
If any of these tools save you an hour, a sponsorship at any tier puts the next hour back into them. Thank you.
